Less is More Challenge - 8 October 2011 - Card No 2

As I said in my previous post the topic for the Less is More Challenge Blog this week is a one layer card with a heart/hearts on it.  This time I have used my computer generated mask but made the heart slightly taller and narrower.  When I cut it out I didn't like it but after I had done the same stamping with my See D's stamps and Tim Holtz's Dusty Concord, Milled Lavender, Spun Sugar and Forest Moss and a Plum Memento, I like this heart shape the best.  It's strange how things can change as a card evolves.  The card is finished off with a Jayne Nesterenko stamped sentiment and a few gems.

I would also like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Mark's Finest Papers - No design papers
Paper Sundaes - Favourite colour combo - my favourite colours to use are purple/lilacs etc
Sentimental Sundays - Anything goes and sentiment
Stampin' Sisters in Christ - Anything goes

    I think you're absolutely right Kym, sometimes we are inclined give up when things don't seem quite as we'd planned, but then when completed turn out better than we'd originally envisaged.
    This is super!
    Thanks again.

    Kym this one is stunning too. I like the scalloped border around the edge. Well done. Thank you so much for playing along with Speedy the Cat's Friends "No Designer Paper" challenge.
